Christians STILL burning witches

[JollyRoger]

Maybe they are witches. Otherwise, the locals wouldn't have been bewitched into burning them.

 

[Japanrocks12]

dammit aneeshm, you beat me to the "evil christian thread"

 

[DNK]

Shall we get back to talking about Nigeria?

No, this is obviously all about religion. Context means nothing...

That is what all these discussions on religion turn into, and why I have little patience for them.

Islam isn't that much younger than Christianity, but I don't think the total number of killings performed by all members of a religion combined have anything to do with how old the religion is.

Meh, ~1300/2000 is a fairly low fraction...

Hah, Pentecostals? Not surprised.

I think the most important question here is:

Were they made of wood?

pentecostals are going to sweep through africa, whose superstitious people are gonna buy their "healing services" hook line and sinker.

as if africa didnt have enough problems already. what's next? are they going to start stoning people to death for breaking the sabbath?

 

[LightFang]

I'm late to the party but I just want to add that I think we should talk about Nigeria in this thread.

How come no one ever criticizes Judaism about stuff like that?

The only thing we can do if someone breaks the Sabbath is forbid our daughters to marry them. Sometimes that doesn't even work.

The only examples I can think of of someone being punished for breaking the Sabbath since ancient times are Christians punishing Jews & other Christians. For example, the 1st historical reference to a Jew being in what would become the U.S. is a record from the Massachusets Bay Colony of the Puritans jailing "Simon ye Jew" for travelling on Sunday.

Looks like someone posted another hate Christianity thread today which isn't really fair.

The kind of people who would kill children in the name of Christ would do the same in the name of Allah, or Vishnu, or the local god or goddess. Christianity isn't the cause of this, stupidity and evil is.

Wrong thread. You'll have to start a hate stupidity & evil thread to stay on topic.

Here's another example of pointing fingers at a group of people from a far away land yet we as a nation have no problem in aborting babies. Thus it's a lot easier to find others faults and wick deeds while covering up our own.

The "babies" in question arn't human, so you fail. Also, tu quoque.

May in inquire as to what they qualify as, if they are not human? Bovine, perhaps? Or maybe canine?

Food.

Maybe!

Food.

So that's what is in those bottles labeled "baby food".

sorry to burst you bubble but no1 is abortion babies (we are aborting fetus which are not babies)

And even if abortion was a illegal what would be the punishment for having an abortion? (Would you kill the mother to be or would you kill the doctor?) And do you think abortion would go down even if it was illegal??

(Btw the non-liberals had congress + president for 6 years and didn't make abortion illegal and they never will because they have nothing else that "alot" of people that read a book that claims abortion is illegal! (aka bible, that think god wrote it. But he didn't humans did to controll other humans)

If there's a picture of peas on a can of peas, then what Gerber is canning only follows suit!

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

Well, actually, the entire opposition to abortion is based on the notion that fetuses are as human as infants - a position that has just as much, if not more, basis in reality as the opposite.
